So that means you should probably listen to him when he talks about business. Who am I talking about? I'll give you some clues: He owns part of an NBA team, he owns several nightclubs, he was the CEO of a well established company from 2005 thru 2008, he has his own champagne....etc. You give up yet?

I could care less what he does, if he is not related to our insdustry

Alex, I don't think that is the right attitude to have. Even in our industry it is STILL a business. I get golden nuggets from all sorts of people. People that are not in this industry.

So I think in my opinion you should step outside the box a little and take it for what it is. Jay Z. Is a brilliant business guy. and does very well at whatever he does.

So just because he isn't in NM doesnt mean that you can't learn something from him.

Just my opinion.

I guess he does not understand the importance of other wealth creation strategies.

Yeah I agree that we should look into every type of business pro, however I see what Alex was saying.

When I come to these forums I look for it to relate to network marketing. This was a bit off to what I was expecting too. So no need to get rude Ibiz

Maybe we should find someone who made 82 million in 2008 from network marketing. LOL

He made his money by being famous. And once you are famous you have endorsements breathing down your neck and many people trying to get you to partner up with them. Look at Pdiddy, he gets $50 million for putting his name on a vodka. That is not so much business, that is a matter of saying "Yes". Who wouldn't do that. But getting to that point is what matters.

Also these famous people have people working for them building up their brand. That is business. Outsourcing is very powerful when you get to that level. Their pr does all the work for them. Example Donald Trump had 3 casinos in Atlantic City under Trump Entertainment. He owned only about 5% of the casinos, other shareholders took the rest. His name was what helped. But he pulled his small percentage out last month and now owns no part of it. But gets royalties for keeping the name.

Ed Hardy is another one. A very successful tattoo artist who has nothing to do with the overpriced clothing but gets money.

So when you get to that level, money just pours in.

In my opinion I would listen to what Some not All have to say about building their businesses but I dont know how it can relate to Network Marketing.
